If no plugin display image

[izachar]

I know this is basic but I can not find the answer anywhere. I want to play my flash movie in the browser if the user has the player. If the user does not have the player I want to display a jpeg. I do not want the user to have to download anything. Macromedia used to have an aplication called aftershock that allowed you to do it.

Thank you

Think you'll have to find yourself a Flash plug-in detection script and set it up on an entry page, then accordingly re-direct the user to your actual Flash page or another standard html page. Regards,

In the older version of Flash there was an application called Aftershock. Using Aftershock you can tell set it that if it does not have the player display it as a gif or jpg. I guess that as the versions progress they take out functionality.
